Emotivo acto de conmemoración del 50 aniversario del Programa de #TPH del @hematoclinicbcn, bajo la actual dirección de la presidenta de @GETH_info. Una huella indeleble en pacientes, profesionales y el resto del ecosistema #TerCel de nuestro país. ¡Enhorabuena!
Oral poster; excellent work & presentation! Neutropenic patients with fever needs a personalized antibiotic approach based on machine learning and prior colonization

The AMR Action Subcommittee and Study Group for Artificial intelligence and Digitalisation (ESGAID) recently published a perspective on the implications of using AI in the fight against #AMR. Check it out: https://t.co/xkSAFpVR1D
Febrile neutropenia still drives heavy carbapenem use due to MDR Gram-negatives. In a cohort of 553 FN episodes, an ML risk model + prior colonisation data could cut meropenem use by ~30% and IEAT from 23% to 9%, supporting personalised EAT.

Based on expert opinion, national guidelines suggest obtaining 2 sets of blood cultures at the onset of FN and repeating cultures on FN days 2-3.
🆕⚡Retrospective cohort study of patients with hem/onc diagnoses & an FN episode >3d
Detection of new BSI after FN day 3 was uncommon, demonstrating low diagnostic yield of repeat blood cultures after FN day 3.
In a cohort of >500 patients with persistent FN, new BSI after FN day 3 was identified in 4% of patients and 2% of days with cultures collected. FN onset in the peri-HCT period (day -7 to +30) was associated with 80% lower odds of new BSI after FN day 3. Among new organisms in blood cultures after FN day 3, 26% were contaminants with over half leading to excess vancomycin use, highlighting the importance of diagnostic stewardship in this population.

Gene therapy has long held promise for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease.

A brilliant UCLA Hematologist, Dr. Gary Schiller, said something to me when I was a medical student that I didn't understand at the time, but in retrospect, turns out to have had a profound, long-lasting impact on me. Specifically, on how I view the concept of "expertise".

Words matter.
It’s time to retire the term oral “step-down.”
It implies inferiority of the oral route—and doesn’t align with stewardship principles.
Terms like IV to oral switch or oral transition better promote optimal antimicrobial stewardship.
What terms do you use—and why?
🏥 El #CLÍNIC-@idibaps ha alcanzado un hito histórico con el tratamiento de más de 5️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ pacientes con terapias CAR-T propias.
🧬 Es el único hospital de Europa que ha desarrollado íntegramente dos terapias CAR-T académicas que están aprobadas por una agencia reguladora (AEMPS).
🔬 En la actualidad se están desarrollando nuevos CAR-T para tratar a pacientes con diferentes tipos de tumores sólidos o enfermedades hematológicas. La investigación se centra también en mejorar la funcionalidad de los CAR-T una vez llegan al tumor.

Ya no se trata solo de elegir el antibiótico.
En neutropenia febril, el cambio es de estrategia.
IA y decisiones que importan.

When meta-analysis fails to show statistically significant difference people claim there is none. Not true. When meta-analyzing non inferiority trials, you don't expect one!
Here we apply the concept of an NI meta analysis to duration of abx for GNR BSI
